The Delhi High Court on Monday asked the Delhi Government, the Lieutenant-Governor and the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India to respond to a petition seeking an account audit of the Delhi Healthcare Corporation (DHC).
The DHC is a registered company that provides administrative services to hospital and health units.
A Bench of Chief Justice D.N. Patel and Justice Jyoti Singh gave the direction on a petition by Abhijit Mishra, a financial economist. Mr. Mishra said since the DHC’s incorporation in 2016, the CAG had not reviewed or inspected its books of accounts and operations.

“Judicial time is a valuable public resource. Every frivolous or misconceived invocation of constitutional jurisdiction results in diversion of time from genuinely deserving litigants,” said the Madurai Bench of the Madras High Court while imposing a cost of ₹50,000 on a man from Theni district who filed a petition with an unusual prayer: permission to conduct daily protests till the ‘World War’ ends.
